Description
Plaintiff Judy Truitt appeals from the district court's order dismissing her claims brought pursuant to Title VII, 42 U.S.C. § § 2000e et seq., against the County of Wayne, Michigan ("the County") and the Detroit-Wayne County Mental Health Board ("the Board"). *fn1 The district court concluded that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction over Truitt's claims because Truitt did not timely file her complaint in the district court as required by 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(f)(1). *fn2 Although Truitt presented her complaint to the district court within the requisite ninety-day time frame, Truitt failed to pay the filing fee within ninety days. For the reasons that follow, we conclude that the district court had subject matter jurisdiction over Truitt's claims; however, we AFFIRM the district court's dismissal of those claims.
